When Zach returned to the apartment Richie was just finishing putting on his dinner suit. He chided his girl for taking so long and told her to move her cute backside. Zach faked a smile and headed to the bedroom. The pat on his arse as he went by Richie caught him off guard, and he jumped like a frightened school girl. Alone again Zach had to decide how to dress for the occasion. As he went through the wardrobe of clothes Zach knew this was going to be a night to remember! For good or bad!

Zach hunted through outfit after outfit before deciding on a black dress. It was knee length and ran above his chest exposing his shoulders save for spaghetti straps with cute bows. Zach really wanted to wear this outfit more than any other in the wardrobe but it meant he couldn't wear a bra with it. He debated on it until he heard Richie call out that they would miss their dinner booking if she didn't hurry. Zach slipped a classy pair of black thong panties on before sliding into the dress. He found a pair of strappy silver sandals that wouldn't cramp his toes. The jewellery he found in another drawer sort of stunned him, as there were things here he could never ever afford for his wife. The elegant necklace and earrings had Zach looking perfect for the night.

Zach joined Richie and they headed downstairs. It felt weird having Richie's arm around his waist but Zach tried to relax. Being in these shoes on the shiny tiled floor of the lobby, combined with trying to master his different body forced Zach to rely quite heavily on his date for support. Zach found himself almost tottering along as he tried to stay close to Richie.

Richie always liked the way Sarah was so girly and feminine. Too bad she had married Zach before they had met, still he wouldn't prove much opposition if he wanted her for himself! As he strolled with Sarah, Richie entertained the thought of settling down.

Zach was again surprised when the limo pulled up. Richie opened the door and Zach climbed in. As they got settled and Richie told the driver to take them to Vlad's Zach was amazed at Richie's opulence. This was truly way out of his league. Zach gathered himself and decided that if this is how Richie treated Sara, then he might as well enjoy it. A glass of champagne and a toast to some stress free days and Zach got into the mood. He forgot about his troubles for the time being and allowed things to flow, including the drinks.

The slow trip was fun for Zach as he was treated like a princess by Richie who was most attentive. Richie was telling Sarah how much he loved her and that these few days while Zach was away were going to be so special. Zach got caught up in the mood and reciprocated Richie's feelings. As the limo pulled up at the restaurant Richie was about to get out and open Sara's door for her when he leaned back into the limo and planted a tender hot kiss right on her lips! Zach was caught off guard a little by Richie's move but the feeling was exciting and as Richie put a strong arm around his shoulder Zach kind of melted inside.

Zach soon found himself being seated at the fanciest restaurant in town. They had a quiet table away from the throng and Richie continued with lots of loving small talk over dessert. Zach couldn't believe he was even here, never could he afford to eat at Vlad's, let alone dinner for two! The couple enjoyed a cocktail while waiting for the main course and wine with their dinner. Another cocktail with dessert and Zach didn't resist Richie's hand holding his.

Zach and Richie headed back to the limo for the drive to the theatre and the night air caught Zach by surprise. He felt a chill and he felt the effects of the alcohol all at once. All through the show Zach tried to keep his cool and not appear drunk. At interval he made for the bathroom and found himself in the unaccustomed position of jostling with many other women for the limited stalls. He finally got to empty his bladder and return to his date in time for the second act. He ended up with his head leaning on Richie's shoulder for the last half hour of the performance. Richie again kissed him long and passionately as they stood outside in the cool air waiting for his limo to pick them up.

Zach was floating, such a great night, lovely meal, being treated like a precious gem by Richie, a few drinks too many, being kissed like he'd never been kissed before, driven around like royalty, being kissed by Richie, feeling Richie's strong body holding him tight as they waited, keeping him from stumbling, his arms so reassuring, his smile so enchanting, where would it end?
